Hi, I had my surgery yesterday. All went well and I am home from the hospital. Doc removed the band and port and did my bypass. I honestly have to say that for me this was easier than when I got the band 6 years ago. Yes I have some discomfort, but overall the surgery was great. I was up walking a few hours after they took me to my room. I was really scared and these forums helped so much. Thank you all for helping me get through this stage.

Glad all went well. Take good care of yourself!

Congrats!

We are just about the same! I had my band about 6 years ago and just revised to rny yesterday. The initial time in recovery was so much worse, but now I'm really starting to feel good. I am feeling hungry, though, are you?

No, I am not hungry at all. Was starving preop!

Hi, I had my band removed and rny done last Thursday, so happy to get rid of that thing, lol. I'm 7 days out and so far (please may it continue), I've had no problems. No real pain, like you say, discomfort but not pain. Good luck with the post-op liquid diet, it's tedious and boring but all for a good reason, lol and I guess it won't last forever
